8/1

Had wind surgery following a 9L fourth in a 3m6f cross-country contest at Cheltenham (good-to-soft) in December 2017. Fair 40L sixth over the same C&D last month on his return from over 12 months off the track.

1/1

Winner of two of his last three starts including over an extended 3m4f at Taunton (good-to-soft) last time out. Raised 4lb for that victory and is one for the shortlist on this occasion.

Form: 5-53141

Regal Flow²¹

Age: 12| Weight: 11-5| J: H Cobden| T: R H Buckler| OR: 131| D

9/2

Attempting back-to-back victories when pulled up in the Midlands National at Uttoxeter (4m2f, heavy) on his penultimate start. Better effort when third subsequently and races off a mark 4lb lower than for his latest success.

Form: U053P3

5/1

Course winner put a couple of non-completions behind him when finishing 1L second over an extended 3m4f at Taunton (soft) last time out. Interesting runner racing off a 2lb higher mark.

Form: 4P-3UF2

Henllan Harri^b,t²⁰

Form: U712P3

On The Road¹⁴

14/1

Improving with racing since returning from a break and finished a decent 15½L sixth in a 3m handicap chase on soft ground here two weeks ago. Interesting having won off a 5lb higher mark in the past.

Form: P5-5P56

Forecasts

Samuel Jackson (1/1), Get On The Yager (11/4), Regal Flow (9/2), Pobbles Bay (5/1), Henllan Harri (6/1), Kingswell Theatre (8/1), Dell' Arca (10/1), On The Road (14/1), De Bene Esse (33/1)

ON THE ROAD is well handicapped on his old form and he is taken to step up on a promising sixth here last time out to take the feature race on the card. The selection can get the better of his rivals here with Samuel Jackson who has been in good form of late capable of finishing runner-up ahead of Get On The Yager who was placed in a stronger contest last time out.
